I can't wait until the Guardian gets this story (if it considers it newsworthy under the Correct and Approved Parameters). Will it demand, with great and intense self-righteousness, that Lt Adamson be tried for War Crimes?

After all, he didn't read the alleged 'enemy' their rights, nor did he use a safe, non-discriminatory means of engaging them.

'New Labour' will have to think of more ways to disband even more infantry battalions with stuff like this happening on their watch.

I have no doubt that the 'Uman Rights 'twats' and the 'Elf & Safety 'wozzucks' are even now working on the charges that they can level at this gallant man. Liberty will be outraged! The French will be brushing up on their reasons NOT to pick another fight with the British.

We should remember the tremendous contribution of the Queen Mother to the war effort:
As the BBC pointed out, she 'bravely remained in London beside her husband' during the war.
This contrasts sharply with the actions of my grandfather who, on the declaration of war immediately left his wife and children and pissed off, first to France, then North Africa, Italy, France (again) and finally Germany.
The shame will always be with us.
